An ideal spring is fixed at one end. A variable force F pulls on the spring. When the magnitude of F reaches a value of 43.8 N,

the spring is stretched by 15.5 cm from its equilibrium length. Calculate the additional work required by F to stretch the spring by an additional 10.4 cm from that position. (in J)

A force of 43.8 N is required to stretch the spring a distance of 15.5 cm = 0.155 m, so the spring constant <em>k</em> is

43.8 N = <em>k</em> (0.155 m)   ==>   <em>k</em> = (43.8 N) / (0.155 m) ≈ 283 N/m

The total work done on the spring to stretch it to 15.5 cm from equilibrium is

1/2 (283 N/m) (0.155 m)² ≈ 3.39 J

The total work needed to stretch the spring to 15.5 cm + 10.4 cm = 25.9 cm = 0.259 m from equilibrium would be

1/2 (283 N/m) (0.259 m)² ≈ 9.48 J

Then the additional work needed to stretch the spring 10.4 cm further is the difference, about 6.08 J.

Newton’s Second Law of motion defines force in terms of mass and acceleration, F= ma. Which of the following is false? The term
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The forces creating the net force must lie in the same direction.

Explanation:

newton's second law states that the net force acting on the body is equal to the product of mass and the acceleration of the body.

If there are several forces acting on the body in different directions, then we have to find teh net force by using the vector sum and then find the acceleration.

It is not necessary that all the forces acting in the same direction.

if they are in different directions then we have to find the net force by t=using the formula for the vector sum.

Lynna [10]

Answer:

The dog is moving at a constant speed

Explanation:

Given that,

Position : 5, 10, 15, 20, 25

Time = 5. 10, 15, 20, 25

We need to draw a position time graph

Using given data

A graph of position and time shows the speed.

According to graph,

The graph indicates that the dog is moving at a constant speed because the graph is straight line.

Hence, The dog is moving at a constant speed
